Hawaii School System

(Tty Associated Press

HONOLULU, T. H., August 23 Reforms in the Japanese language

school system of Hawaii were decided

upon here at a conference of forty-

five teachers. The Japanese educators plan to Americanize the schools

and to Btress the work of inculcating

American ideals in their pupils while retaining the privilege of studying their own language and culture. The establishment of a normal school for Japanese teachers, with at least part of the staff to be composed of Americans, is to be taken up immediately. It was unanimously agreed that more attention must be paid in the Japanese schools to the teaching of Amerioan history, ideals and customs, and the English language. The Issue was clearly presented to the teachers by R. Morol, Japanese consul general, who declared that if the Japanese are to retain their privileges of teaching the Japanese language, they will have to do it in such a way as to satisfy Americans in Hawaii. He said the Japanese schools rould be so maintained that there could be no fear of disloyalty to the United States, and that the schools must be so conducted. In the last territorial legislature two measures were Introduced for the regulation of foreign language schools in Hawaii; both bills were killed. The Japanese claimed their enactment would force them to close their schools and promised, if given time, to work out a system that would meet any objections.
